Effect of horticultural oil on oviposition behaviour and egg survival in the obliquebanded leafroller (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae)
Download2009
Evenden, M. L., Wins-Purdy, A. H., Whitehouse, C., Judd, G. J. R.
Abstract: The effects of the horticultural oil Purespray Green on oviposition behaviour and egg development in the obliquebanded leafroller, Choristoneura rosaceana (Harris), were investigated through dual-choice and no-choice bioassays and topical applications of oil to developing eggs. A...

Environmental particulate matter induces murine intestinal inflammatory responses and alters the gut microbiome
Download2013-01-01
Thiesen, Aducio, Rioux, Kevin P., Tso, Robert, Kish, Lisa, Barkema, Herman W., Madsen, Karen L., Vincent, Renaud, Wine, Eytan, Kaplan, Gilaad G., Hotte, Naomi, Gänzle, Michael G.
Background Particulate matter (PM) is a key pollutant in ambient air that has been associated with negative health conditions in urban environments. The aim of this study was to examine the effects of orally administered PM on the gut microbiome and immune function under normal and inflammatory...

Induction of microsomal membrane proteins in roots of an aluminum-resistant cultivar of Triticum aestivum L. under conditions of aluminum stress
Download1994
Basu, U., Basu, A., Taylor, G. J.
Three-day-old seedlings of an Al-sensitive (Neepawa) and an Al-resistant (PT741) cultivar of Triticum aestivum were subjected to Al concentrations ranging from a to 100 mu M for 72 h. At 25 mu M Al, growth of roots was inhibited by 57% in the Al-sensitive cultivar, whereas root growth in the...

Ketabi, Ali, Baracos, Vickie E., Field, Catherine J., Lin, Xiaoxi, Xue, Hongyu, Bibova, Ilona, Gänzle, Michael G., Dieleman, Levinus A., Sawyer, Michael B.
Intestinal microbiota mediate toxicity of irinotecan (CPT-11) cancer therapies and cause systemic infection after CPT-11-induced loss of barrier function. The intestinal microbiota and their functions are thus potential targets for treatment to mitigate CPT-11 toxicity. However, microbiota...

Lactobacillus reuteri maintains a functional mucosal barrier during DSS treatment despite mucus layer dysfunction
Download2012
Rang, Sara, Roos, Stefan, Phillipson, Mia, Holm, Lena, Dicksved, Johan, Willing, Ben P., Petersson, Joel, Schreiber, Olof
Treatment with the probiotic bacterium Lactobacillus reuteri has been shown to prevent dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced colitis in rats. This is partly due to reduced P-selectin-dependent leukocyte- and platelet-endothelial cell interactions, however, the mechanism behind this protective...

MetaboMiner – semi-automated identification of metabolites from 2D NMR spectra of complex biofluids
Download2008
Tang, P., Wishart, D.S., Xia, J., Bjorndahl, T.C.
Background One-dimensional (1D) 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is widely used in metabolomic studies involving biofluids and tissue extracts. There are several software packages that support compound identification and quantification via 1D 1H NMR by spectral fitting...

Neutrophil elastase alters the murine gut mirobiota resulting in enhanced Salmonella colonization
Download2012
Hartmann, Martin, Sekirov, Inna, Finlay, B. Brett, Al-Zahrani, Fatimah, Willing, Benjamin P., Ferreira, Rosana B. R., Gill, Navkiran, Antunes, L. Caetano M.
The intestinal microbiota has been found to play a central role in the colonization of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium in the gastrointestinal tract. In this study, we present a novel process through which Salmonella benefit from inflammatory induced changes in the microbiota in order to...

Small intestine early innate immunity response during intestinal colonization by Escherichia coli depends on its extra-intestinal virulence status
Download2016
Denamur, Erick, Tourret, Jérôme, Dion, Sara, Willing, Benjamin P., Wachtel, Sarah, Finlay, B. Brett, Dufour, Nicolas, Croxen, Matthew A.
Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) strains live as commensals in the digestive tract of the host, but they can also initiate urinary tract infections. The aim of this work was to determine how a host detects the presence of a new UPEC strain in the digestive tract. Mice were orally challenged...

The intestinal microbiota plays a role in Salmonella-induced colitis independent of pathogen colonization
Download2011
Antunes, L. Caetano M., Gill, Navkiran, Russell, Shannon L., Finlay, B. Brett, Ferreira, Rosana B., Croxen, Matthew A., Willing, Benjamin P.
The intestinal microbiota is composed of hundreds of species of bacteria, fungi and protozoa and is critical for numerous biological processes, such as nutrient acquisition, vitamin production, and colonization resistance against bacterial pathogens. We studied the role of the intestinal...

The role of intestinal microbiota in development of irinotecan toxicity and in toxicity reduction through dietary fibres in rats
Download2014
Baracos, Vickie, Dieleman, Levinus, Farhangfar, Arazm, Lin, Xiaoxi B., Gänzle, Michael G., Sawyer, Michael B., Valcheva, Rosica, Schieber, Andreas
CPT-11 is a drug used as chemotherapy for colorectal cancer. CPT-11 causes toxic side-effects in patients. CPT-11 toxicity has been attributed to the activity of intestinal microbiota, however, intestinal microbiota may also have protective effects in CP!-11 chemotherapy. This study aimed to...
